Real Madrid host Celta Vigo in what is Zinedine Zidane's first home game as manager nine months after he left the Spanish capital. All eyes will be on the French manager who created history in his first spell with Los Blancos after winning the UEFA Champions League for three consecutive seasons. Zidane replaced Santiago Solari as the head coach earlier in the week after the Galacticos crashed out of all three competitions inside a week. The focus will now be on securing a UCL spot for next season meanwhile hoping for a Barcelona and Atletico Madrid slip up so Real can enter the race for the league glory once again.

Celta Vigo on the other hand currently resides in the relegation zone in a tightly contested battle to stay in Spanish top flight next season. After having endured a nightmare campaign so far, the visitors have had a change in their managerial position just like the home side. However, the change didn't seem to work as Fran Escriba has failed to win his opening two games in charge and with Real Madrid ahead of them on the road a hattrick of defeats looks highly likely.

The last time these two sides met in November, the Spanish giants came out on top in a thumping 4-2 victory over the Celticos. The things don't look good for the visitors no matter where we look from, Celta's last game at Santiago Bernabeu ended in a humiliating 6-0 defeat at the hands of none other than Zinedine Zidane's men.

TEAM NEWS

Zinedine Zidane who has already asked for a cash load of money to spend in the summer will manage his first game in charge with many key players missing from the squad. The likes of Marcos Llorente, Lucas Vasquez, Vinicius Jr., and Dani Carvajal all stay on the sidelines due to injury and Casemiro serving his one-match suspension. Sergio Ramos return could be a major boost for Los Blancos who saw their captain miss their 1-4 humiliating defeat to Ajax in the UEFA Champions League.

Celta Vigo would be without their talisman Iago Aspas who remains injured and Hugo Mallo serves his suspension. Other than that Fran Escriba will have the whole squad at his disposal.
